Hi @john moriss There's text-based editing and then there's editing text objects. I think you mean editing and formatting text objects in Premiere Pro, correct? If I could change one thing for formatting text objects in Premiere Pro, it would be having the same keyboard shortcuts for kerning (character spacing) that we have in After Effects, Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign (option/alt-left arrow or option/alt-right arrow while the text prompt is between the characters). You've probably noticed that while similar, the type engine in Photoshop and After Effects is different from the one in Illustrator which is different from the one in InDesign. Consistent behaviors across the applications may be the best we can hope for - but who knows? Maybe a unified type engine could be coded and implemented. You may not be looking for a workaround, but we can format text in After Effects, Photoshop, or Illustrator, actively select it, and then copy and paste it to a text prompt in a Type Object in Premiere Pro and retain the styling (font, size, fill color, etc.). If we really want to use InDesign, we can save PNG files from the INDD file.
